Mushroom Hunting Tour
However, as the name suggests, it is a hunt! We will not always find what we are looking for, and although most mushrooms are harmless, there are many poisonous ones too. But not to worry, for your guide will be able to show you which are edible and is always available to explain the different fungi you have found.
This guided foraging tour from Helsinki immerses us in the forest and the magical world of fungi. Bright oranges, golden yellows, and deep reds decorate the forest floor. We are in search of Finland's most delicious and prized edible mushrooms, the chanterelle. It is also a personal favorite here at Taiga Times.
